Charter Ticket Prices to Random Charter Destinations

Post by Flightlevel27 »

Good Day
Is there any way as to "check" pax/seat prices prior to booking a flight?
IE: I am at airport A and maybe like to create a charter flight to destination D, can one see that ticket prices prior to booking the flight.
I could not be happy with the "income details" and decide to charter to airport F maybe and see if the ticket prices are better than flying too destination H or D for that matter!

Thank you & have a nice day!

Charter ticket prices are set at a fixed rate for any given route (125% of standard? can't remember exactly). If you want to play with ticket price adjustments you need to create a flight route and set your own rate. When you create/edit a route, you can see exactly what the competition is charging as well as the standard rate. BE ADVISED: It is possible to price your airline out of having full aircraft if you charge too much!

The actual charter prices is the standard price * (airline reputation + 20%). So if your airlines reputation has reached the max 120% then your charter prices is 140% of the standard price.

I looked at the book charter pages again and its two pages.
Page 1: Select Aircraft
Page 2: Enter destination

So I am not sure where in that flow we would show this information without adding a third page, which would of course slow things down to add information that many would not be interested in.

Are you asking for another page off the airport information page that would show this? We could add page that would show all the destinations from an airport with the standard/min/max/average prices. It would work for all the airports where other airlines have already have routes setup but not for those that don't. Take a look at the package summary page from any airport to get an idea on how that would work.

Or we could add a page where you enter your intended destination and it could show you some information regarding that route, distance, average and standard prices, maybe some population or cargo information.

Do either of these ideas work for you?
